A history lesson

We used to be a great nation, we used to have great kings and very intelligent people that made us known all around the globe, and now we’re struggling to be accepted in U.E. We almost beg them to accept us. What a shame! It almost makes me cry…

We are the ancestors of the Romans and of the Daci, the first inhabitants of this country. We have Latin blood and the Romans conquered us only after a second war. They were so amazed by our ancestors love for the country and for they bravery that a column had been erected in Rome to commemorate those qualities. And so the Romanians were born.

In the 15th century king Stephan the Great fought against the Turks and defeated them, preventing Orthodoxy to be replaced by the their religion. And we’ve always been a religious nation. The beautiful monasteries from all over our country prove that.

We never wanted to conquer other nations or land. We always stood in the borders of our own country and defeated them. That’s what Romanians had done over a period of many centuries: defeated their country, religion, traditions and families.

But eventually, Transylvania was occupied by Austro-Hungarians and the other two parts of the country by the Turks. In 1918, after the First World War the 3 countries were reunited again. From 1866 until December 1947 the men from the Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen family were our kings. Even though they were not Romanians but Germans, they acted like true Romanians and put the country first, not their relatives. In 1947 king Mihai was forced by the bloody communists to abdicate and was sent to exile along with all the royal family.

1947 is the beginning of the Romania’s decline. Until 1989 we were a communist country. And that really affected our economy and our thinking. But in 1989 the people couldn’t take it anymore and started to protest in the streets. This lead to several deaths because our “president” ordered the army to shot the crowd. Thank God they were not intimidated, and finally caught the bloody bastard and his wife and shot them. Since then we’re a democratic country.

To be hones, I really hate the people that took control over the country in 1989 because they were raised and brought up with the same communist ideas and the country didn’t progress almost at all since then (mentally speaking). I really wish king Mihai would have been let to come back in the country and be our king again. I hate all our presidents because every one of them was a corrupted man (oh well, I have to admit, that our actual president is different). If we had had our king, everything would have been different.

Today I cried

Today I cried… I sometimes hate myself for being so easily influenced. And today my best friend sent me a song and said, “this is specially for you…and I mean every little word”. And when I listened to it I started crying…

And when I remember that I judged her that I thought her net pals were more important than I am to her… Oh, my Maria, please forgive my foolishness! I’m not worthy of our friendship; I’m not worthy of any friendship!

 

Oh, why you look so sad?
Tears are in your eyes
Come on and come to me now
Don’t be ashamed to cry
Let me see you through
’cause I’ve seen the dark side too
When the night falls on you
You don’t know what to do
Nothing you confess
Could make me love you less

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you

So if you’re mad, get mad
Don’t hold it all inside
Come on and talk to me now
Hey, what you got to hide?
I get angry too
Well I’m a lot like you
When you’re standing at the crossroads
And don’t know which path to choose
Let me come along
’cause even if you’re wrong

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you

And when…
When the night falls on you, baby
You’re feeling all alone
You won’t be on your own

I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you

I’ll stand by you
Take me in, into your darkest hour
And I’ll never desert you
I’ll stand by you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you
Won’t let nobody hurt you
I’ll stand by you… (The Pretenders - I’ll stand by you)
